If you're looking for specific ideas, some arcade games I've played recently that I enjoy include the latest Metal Slug, Mr. Driller, Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo, and any game involving spaceships, dramatic fatalities, lasers that take up half the screen, exploding body parts, and/or 5000 bullets on-screen at once.

Some more details about the project would help us think of ideas for you.

I just got out some old Apogee games recently. Crystal Caves, Secret Agent, Commander Keen. Man, those were fun... for a little while at least.

Apogee made a metric poop ton of games that I played on my Tandy 1000. Those where the days. The aren't really arcade games, but if you're stuck maybe take a look at some of those old games. I'd love a remake of a few of them.
